Digital BW, The Print

I don’t see any use for it by fine art photographers.  The optical path is
messy; adds losses and distortions by splitting the incoming rays into many
more rays.  A firmware update, to add focus bracketing on existing dSLRs
would be of more use to us, IMO, and cost nothing.
On the surface it looks very interesting, but after looking at the actual
method used, I doubt it will have any significant commercial success.

Best regards,
John Moody

If you haven't seen this yet, check it out.

Also, make sure you look at the movies.

This innovation is truly awesome!

Hopefully, they can add shifts and tilts!
